Chipboard and embossing with Clear Scraps!

Hi, Connie here with a scrapbook page using chipboard shapes and the title year, as embellishments, by Clear Scraps. I love using chipboard on scrapbook pages! It is easy to make it what you need it to be. If you want to use paint, emboss it , ink it or leave it plain~ you can decide what look you like.

The two chipboard peices were embossed with chunky embossing powder. I really love the look of embossed chipboard. Clear Scraps has a large selection of chipboard images, shapes and title words. They are always adding new items to the store, so check it out!

The embossed chipboard is adhered, to the page, with Beacon 3-IN-1 glue. So shiney and it has a varigated look to it.

I wanted to keep the program, from this event, so I created a slide out behind the photo mat. All you do is adhere along 3 sides, of the mat, leaving the one side open to slide the item in and out of. This technique could also be used to create a secret space for journaling. The tab on the program makes it easy to pull it out.

A photo strip was created, at the bottom of the page, making sure all the pictures, of the event, are in que.

This is a special time for my granddaughter and her family!! She is one smart cookie!
